What voltage are we looking for in terms of biasing the MOSFETs on the Octanaut?

I was planning on doing that but this is going to be my first shot at using Taydas drilling so I didn't want to mess with resizing holes in addition to moving that. All good

I was trying to be as lazy as possible lol

Yeah I don't like the aesthetic of the washer or the gaping hole lol that's why I wanted the template 😅 I also want to move the LED hole

Hey Robert, still hoping for an answer here for what value this resistor is, thanks! Derek

About to build five of these, hoping to order the enclosures pre-drilled. Thanks!

Trying to get through the massive stack of unfinished PCBs I have, the lycan build doc still isn't up but there is a BOM. Unfortunately, what's printed on the board (looks like 11k, there is no 11k in the BOM posted in the missing docs thread) doesn't really make sense lol. The picture on the...

Agreed, R15 does appear to be labelled 11k. Also, is there any chance to get the schematic for this? I'm trying to avoid buying the odd value resistors but I want to see what the effect of using 2.2k/2.7k (probably not much) for R18 and 100k for R17. Thanks!

A friend requested essentially a Blink 182 pedal - a Marshall in a box and Mesa in a box with a blend knob to blend the two. I've built both of these individually a few times and figured they should do the job, am I good to just split the input to both effect inputs and then send the outputs to...

https://www.talkbass.com/threads/oc-2-clipping.1027629/ Here is said thread for all interested

Aha! I finally found a useful thread discussing this. They mention increasing R6 instead, this is where my electronics knowledge takes a dive - is there an advantage to changing r5 VS r6? They're both used to set the gain of the input.

I mentioned this to him yesterday, I dunno if he wants to run a comp. Dude is kinda a pain but he's a friend and I love him so here we are lol. I basically sold this to him at build cost so I've been attempting to find solutions that don't take up a ton of my time

The worst part is my bass is low enough output that it doesn't clip lol, so even if I get it to stop clipping the guitars, I won't know until he plugs in. He plays in a pop/rock cover band, dude needs to get a Jazz Bass and call it a day lol. Only time I use the OC2 I've built myself is for CKY...

My 7 string with Fishmans clips this, as does my Les Paul which is just high output passives, but I assume there's no way that's hitting the rails, so I'm thinking the buffer may be the fix. It's easy enough to try, I just don't know if it'll ultimately cause unwanted level drop. I'll try...

Certainly can't hurt to try lol

Nice! I attempted to squeeze this circuit onto a board that would fit a 1590B (by request), it was my first attempt at laying out a PCB...doesn't work lol. I do have signal at the end, but none of the knobs do anything and I have no octaves :ROFLMAO:. I will report back after trying a different...

It is in the non pitched signal too, this is a good point! I'll give this a shot tonight, thanks!

Yeah, just unfortunate that I tested with a lower output guitar lol. The guy who I sold this one to (I sold him two at the same time) said it just started, but I think that's untrue based one what I'm seeing now. He's got a five string active Ibanez bass that I assume is just rocking one of the...

I did try searching first and was unable to find anything already posted about this. I'll try swapping out some 072s, though I just built another set of four and they're all doing it. I did some googling and apparently this is an issue even in the original circuit, it doesn't like super hot...

Also, FWIW, I have now built I think 10 of these circuits and never had this issue. It's very weird lol
